I n Ch r i s t Al o n e :In Christ alone my hope is foundHe is my light, my strength, my songThis cornerstone, this solid groundFirm through the fiercest drought and stormWhat heights of love, what depths of peaceWhen fears are stilled, when strivings ceaseMy Comforter, my All-in-AllHere in the love of Christ I stand.In Christ alone who took on fleshFullness of God in helpless babeThis gift of love and righteousnessScorned by the ones he came to saveTill on that cross as Jesus diedThe wrath of God was satisfiedFor every sin on Him was laidHere in the death of Christ, I live.There in the ground His body layLight of the world by darkness slainThen bursting forth in glorious dayUp from the grave He rose againAnd as He stands in victorySin’s curse has lost its grip on meFor I am His and He is mineBought with the precious blood of ChristIn Christ alone I place my trustAnd find my glory in the power of the crossIn every victory let it be said of meMy source of strengthMy source of hopeIs Christ alone I place my trustAnd find my glory in the power of the crossIn every victory let it be said of meMy source of strengthMy source of hopeIs Christ alone.Written by Stuart Townsend and Keith Getty; Shawn Craig/Thankyou Music/ASCAP
